Fun4TheMoney 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2005 To show my dedication to bringing you the highest quality news about online money-making programs, I have dug deep into my own PayPal pocket and squandered a whole dollar to sign up for DollarBuddy. I WOULD NOT HAVE DONE IT OTHERWISE. This does NOT look like a good program, but I?ve been wrong before (unfortunately, not about something like this). If there?s any way to make this puppy pay, you?ll be the first to hear about it. Right now, I?m waiting for my ?welcome? email. Since I?ve read horror stories about their communication skills, if my email doesn?t arrive, I?m probably out a dollar and this will be a very short article. The confirmation notice went straight into my spam folder?so much for AOL?s confidence in this program. Okay, my account is now active. What did I get for my dollar? Not much. My profile has no links to my real website, and neither does my ?Profit Page? so this program will not generate any traffic to my real website. It appears that my dollar just bought me a perpetual raffle ticket. My "Profit Page" goes into a hat with the other 500,000 members. When somebody wanders in off the street, DollarBuddy picks a site at random, and, if mine comes up, and if the happy wanderer signs up, I get a dollar. The bigger this program gets, the lower my chances of having my site come up. [The only possible way I can see this program generating any revenue, would be if we can submit this ?Profit Page? link for free to some of those traffic-generating sites where people just click around, because they don?t have anything better to do. I?ve never tried it, so I don?t know if it would work or not.]Next, I chose the ebooks tab. They do have an impressive list of titles?at least in the number of titles offered. Unfortunately, you can?t tell what you?re getting until you actually do the download. It looks like I?ll be busy for the rest of the day. Ah well, that?s all there is, folks. No matter what tab you click on?Free Traffic, Banners, More Profit?all you get is Google ads. Sad to say, Dollar Buddy is all smoke and mirrors. My search for a decent way to make money online will have to continue?without that hard-earned dollar from my PayPal account.OTOH, if you?re in the market for ebooks, with full resell rights, you could sign up, here, and consider it the best deal in town. As of this writing, there are over 150 titles listed. The bad news is that they?re mostly junk. It appears that webmasters copy off their folders, add an optional ?readme? file, if they?re feeling particularly generous, then zip up the whole thing and market it as an ebook. Evidently it?s considered free advertising. For the reader, it would be like hacking into someone?s website?without even seeing it, first?then copying the whole mess to your hard drive and trying to make sense of it. BLAH! I?ve downloaded 2 real losers. I?m going to give it one more chance then move on to something more productive, with a resounding Thumbs Down for Dollar Buddy.YEE-HAH! I found a good one?a real ebook, properly laid out, with a table of contents and everything (HealthierYou). Okay, maybe this goofy program is worth a dollar. I will get to work evaluating and reviewing the ebooks, now, but it will probably take me forever. I will put my affiliate thingy in my sig, in case anybody else wants to sign up for the ebooks. WARNING! Something in the download process shut my monitor down. I had to do CTRL-ALT-DEL, then Cancel, to get my screen back. I have no idea what that was all about, but it is making me a little bit nervous. Suz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fun4TheMoney 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2005 Nice Review I Give It A 10 Out Of 10 And I Giv You A 10 Out Of 10 Nice And Tnx For Your Dedication 147152[/snapback] Thank you. That nice reply made it worth the dollar. As a P.S., I'm even more disgusted, today, after thinking about it some more. With all the great, free ebooks available, there's absolutely no excuse for not putting out only a top-quality product. It would only take them a week or so to clean up that mess and give us something that would make us proud to pay our money and help promote them, besides. I've just been given a terrific opportunity to pick the 10 best money-making sites out there, review them, then list them in an exclusive directory with my affiliate links. I can tell you, old Dollar Buddy WON'T be on that list. Suz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
